BodyCombat

So I just recently joined a new gym and they have classes called body combat. I wasn't sure what it was so I looked it up on YouTube one day and thought "oh I can for sure do that!"

The class is one hour of pure cardio/ interval training. You do routined movements that include punching and kicks, so it's pretty much a mix of kick boxing, ring boxing and karate without an opponent.

During my first class I thought I was going to die, I was sweating out of every pore in my body...and I NEVER sweat. That was about 10 classes back, I go every week and it is always a new challenge but I love it!! Not gonna lie, I felt a little dumb doing the punches because I have never punched anything in my life, but the music makes it easy to get into it and be synchronized. It is the best workout without feeling like you're working out!! If you're looking for a quick way to get in shape I definitely recommend this class!

  2. I do BodyCombat as well and absolutely love it!!! Its my favorite class at the gym. And I totally agree with you on the music, it really pumps me up. Sometimes I'll hear a song and thing that the instructor should add it into her IPod for the workout:) I'm ok with the punches, its the jump kick that I can never get...I look like the biggest fool:)
